I just got my Foxsur so I don't know my battery life can extend how long yet.
Overall it's has desulfate function so I guess it's good
Roughly can extend battery life for how long ? 2years extend to 3 ?
Glad that you also have the FoxSur charger.
Because I already gone through some of the international Youtuber reviewers using the Battery repair mode aka Desulfator on the Foxsur. Yes they managed to successfully revived some of the weak battery.
But after reading some expert opinions from Battery University, this desulfator is like a roulette game. Use wrongly and it can in fact damage the battery.
So if the battery is
still relatively mid age , like just a year old, then its like a prevention measure to remove some of the sulfate.
I tried that on 2 of my old batteries. But both were on its way out. And old battery.
Was trying to see if I could "wake it up from the dead"
1 battery - Which was having bulging by the side, and already weak,
After going through battery repair mode, ended up being "Plate shorted" (10.8 Volts) state from weak state.
Yes because earlier on it was tested with someone's battery tester. CCA was low.
Another was in already weak state, used battery repair mode, lasted for 1-2 days before weaken again. No choice, had to let it go.
Its not to say the desulfator mode is no good or useless. Use it with caution.
Otherwise use it to
charge the battery frequently when its near 12.5Volts. So that to minimize the sulfate .
